Street Soccer Academy

Street Soccer Academy is a professional service provider that specialises in the rehabilitation and reintegration of vulnerable and ‘at-risk’ individuals into communities. We work on behalf of some of the nation’s hardest to reach groups within our communities. Our custody to community model is in operation in HMP Forest Bank and has proven to be very successful over the three-year period we have operated in partnership with them. Street Soccer Academy offers two main streams of service delivery – a football based coach education programme and health and fitness programme. Our community based regional centres provide the opportunity to continue engaging with the participants once released and to develop their roles in society. With 80 men a year having completed our internal programmes, more than 90% choose to engage with us in community and we have an associated reoffending rate of just 8%.
